A 2018 Audie Award Finalist for Best Middle-Grade Fiction Narration
Fans of Stick Dog and My Big Fat Zombie Goldfish will love Suzanne Selfors’s hilarious new series about the growing pains of blended families and the secret rivalry of
pets.
When a bouncy, barky dog and an evil genius guinea pig move into the same house, the laughs are nonstop! Wedgie is so excited, he can’t stop barking. He LOVES having new siblings and friends to
protect. He LOVES guinea pigs like Gizmo! He also LOVES treats!
But Gizmo does not want to share his loyal human servant with a rump-sniffing beast! He does not want to live in a pink Barbie Playhouse. Or to be kissed and hugged by the girl human. Gizmo is an
evil genius. He wants to take over the world and make all humans feel his wrath. But first he must destroy his archenemy, Wedgie, once and for all!
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“Narrators Johnny Heller and Maxwell Glick are unfailingly exuberant as they bring Wedgie and Gizmo to life. This is no easy task, given these two large personalities—one a guinea pig set on taking over the world and the other the quintessential family dog, ever faithful but out of step…Heller and Glick use every narration technique—low, menacing drawn-out words; enthusiastic utterances in bouncy high-pitched tones; and pacing as dizzying as the action. A fun-filled romp.” —AudioFile
“A hilarious and unique perspective [on] two families coming together…This first installment is great for one-on-one sharing or independent reading.” —School Library Journal
“Hilarious…Little ones [will be] elated by enthusiastic Wedgie and grumpy Gizmo.” —Booklist
“Amusing and imaginative.” —Kirkus Reviews
“A delightfully comedic look at the chaos that is family life… There’s plenty of warmth and humor, with a bit of sardonic bite from Gizmo.” —Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
